- Be aware that, in order to monitor and maintain the effective running of the laboratory , the computing staff need to observe use of the facility, network traffic and its content, and can therefore read student files held on facility equipment.
- co-operate in using the facilities in a sensible and considerate manner. This facility can only be used for coursework and for related computing of an educational nature, for example, exploring the internet for materials related to courses. In the latter case, you must relinquish the computer to a student waiting for a machine on which to do coursework.
